Something I tried with a slower machine to use all of the plugins that I wanted was to mix down one effect at a time, so if i wanted a reverb on my drum tracks and eq's on all the rest of my tracks but couldn't run the session with that many effects I would solo my drums tracks with the reverb, mix those down to a single wet track and load the mixdown track back into my session so I no longer had to run the effect realtime.
